20: The other face of the brutal tiger king
Although extremely reluctant,
since Qi Meng had already spoken to this extent, Zhang Hang had no choice but to comply.
He didn't contact five warriors; instead, he directly contacted seven, making it a total of eight people including himself.
This wasn't out of fear of not being able to move everything, but rather Zhang Hang's intention to embarrass Qin Tian.
Aren't your things numerous?
Don't you need people?
I'll directly bring eight people over; then, two people will be able to move everything, and the remaining six will return empty-handed.
At that time, I'll see where the Guild Leader's face will be placed, and I'll see how you'll establish your authority.
Thus, under Zhang Hang's leadership, he and the other seven set off in a grand procession.
They headed together towards the coordinates Qin Tian had provided in the wilderness.
He wanted to see exactly how many things there were.
***
After Qin Tian finished contacting Qi Meng, he took He's Just a Legend and walked towards the Savage Tiger King, a wild BOSS in the distance.
The Savage Tiger King truly lived up to its reputation as the star BOSS of this area.
It hadn't been long since the Menglong Guild's people had left before other guilds had already taken over.
As soon as Qin Tian approached, he was stopped by someone.
"Which guild are you from? Can't you see our Viper Guild is fighting the BOSS? Hurry up and get away, be careful of stray skills, lest you get accidentally injured."
Wang Tao, the sub-leader of the Viper Guild, looked at Qin Tian with an unfriendly expression.
If it weren't for the large red name above Qin Tian's head, he would have already attacked.
He was already very close to the BOSS, Savage Tiger King, and Qin Tian could already see this giant tiger monster.
This tiger monster hadn't entered combat; instead, it was lying on the ground resting.
The Viper Guild's people had merely surrounded it but hadn't attacked.
Qin Tian instantly understood: this BOSS must have been enraged by the Menglong Guild's people earlier, and its enraged state hadn't subsided yet.
The Viper Guild's people wanted to wait for the BOSS's rage to end and for it to enter a weakened state before fighting it; that way, they could easily kill the BOSS.
Although Qin Tian had already figured out the problem, he continued to walk forward with a calm expression.
As for Wang Tao of the Viper Guild, he was completely ignored.
"Hmph, seeking death."
Wang Tao watched Qin Tian's retreating figure and snorted coldly, but he didn't continue to obstruct him; instead, he secretly had someone clear a path.
"Boss, aren't you going to stop him? I see this person's name is Qin Tian; could it be the Qin Tian who killed the Menglong Guild's Enforcement Team?"
Vice-leader Zhou Lan received Wang Tao's message and was somewhat confused when he saw him letting Qin Tian pass.
"Stop him for what? So what if it is? What does the Menglong Guild's business have to do with us? It's even better if it's that Qin Tian; it'll be perfect to let him wear down the BOSS."
"The BOSS is currently in its enraged phase; if he goes up now, it's impossible for him to win. When he and the BOSS injure each other, won't it be better for us to easily take down both him and the BOSS?"
"This is called 'when the snipe and clam fight, the fisherman benefits.' You should learn more about it."
Wang Tao saw that Qin Tian had already entered the Savage Tiger King's attack range, and the smile on his face was no longer concealed.
"It has to be you, Guild Leader; I'm impressed, truly impressed."
Zhou Lan quickly showered him with flattery.
"Everyone retreat! Retreat ten meters! Let's all see what abilities this kid, who dares to challenge the Menglong Guild, truly possesses."
Wang Tao was afraid of being affected by the Savage Tiger King's attacks, so he quickly told his guild members to retreat.
Now that this BOSS was enraged, even a casual touch was something they couldn't withstand; one careless mistake and they would be instantly killed.
The Viper Guild's people were already afraid to go forward; now, upon receiving Wang Tao's message, they ran even faster than each other. Not to mention ten meters, some even retreated twenty meters, giving the enraged Savage Tiger King the respect it deserved.
Qin Tian, with his pet Goblin, got closer and closer to the Savage Tiger King.
All the members of the Viper Guild held their breath and watched Qin Tian.
They all wanted to know whether Qin Tian was more powerful or if the enraged Savage Tiger King would prevail.
Silence.
Silence.
It was simply too quiet.
There was no immediate, explosive battle as the Viper Guild members had imagined.
Qin Tian had already walked right up to the Savage Tiger King, yet this BOSS was still lying on the ground.
It was just like a sleeping big cat, completely unlike something in an enraged state.
"What's going on with this BOSS? Why isn't it attacking him?"
Wang Tao was stunned; this was different from before. When their Viper Guild members had arrived earlier, this Savage Tiger King was like crazy; it had already attacked before they even entered its attack range.
But now, Qin Tian was practically in its face, yet this BOSS was still lying on the ground, as if asleep.
What was happening?
"Master, this fellow wants to recognize you as its master and be your mount."
He's Just a Legend stood beside the Savage Tiger King, his muffled voice ringing out.
"Be a mount?"
Qin Tian looked at the Violent Tiger King lying on the ground, his long blade already drawn and suspended in mid-air.
The Savage Tiger King, lying on the ground, finally got up, but it didn't attack Qin Tian. Instead, it circled around Qin Tian, then rubbed its huge head against Qin Tian's body and let out soft roars.
The people from the Viper Guild in the distance were dumbfounded; they had never seen the Savage Tiger King in this state before.
Wang Tao vigorously rubbed his eyes, then stared wide-eyed at the Savage Tiger King.
"It's still in an enraged state, what's going on?"
The scene before him had already exceeded Wang Tao's comprehension.
"He said he's begging you to save him and take him away from here."
"You can understand what it's saying?"
"I told you, I'm the smartest in our village, Master, why don't you believe me?"
Qin Tian heard He's Just a Legend's translation and looked at the BOSS, which resembled a large housecat, with a thoughtful expression.
If he didn't kill this Savage Tiger King, what would happen to He's Just a Legend's class change quest?
"Oowoo."
The Savage Tiger King saw the hesitation in Qin Tian's eyes and instantly understood what Qin Tian was thinking.
Everyone who came here to attack it had the same goal.
The Savage Tiger King raised its massive paw high.
"Is it finally going to attack? Yes, hit him hard, let him experience the power of a BOSS in its enraged state."
Zhou Tao's expression grew excited as he saw the Savage Tiger King finally about to attack Qin Tian.
A crisp snap echoed.
Zhou Tao was stunned.
All the members of the Viper Guild were stunned by the scene before them.
The Savage Tiger King did not attack Qin Tian; instead, it reached its paw into its own mouth.
A huge, blood-stained fang was directly pulled out by the Savage Tiger King and offered to Qin Tian.
